Most of the Facebook site has felt like something "slapped together by an intern" for a long time for me. But yeah, FBM really went above and beyond in that regard the last time I tried using it. It's too bad, because it does have a lot of potential as you said; Craigslist has been mostly ruined by scammers and FB has the advantage that everyone is basically a verified user and not some random person in Nigeria who wants to send you a cashier's check for more than your asking price.
The only thing from FB I've really liked was the Messenger Lite app, and they've destroyed that now. The regular Messenger app still works ok though, but it's very bloated.

They offered above the asking price, but wanted us to pay for a courier, for which they would repay us with cash in an envelope. The whole thing ended up so annoying and stressful, we said we'd never sell anything on Facebook again.
- shiroiuma 3y agoWow, apparently FBM has gone the way of Craigslist since I last tried it (back in early 2022).
